Major institutional boost for Solana: Charles Schwab, managing over $10.8 trillion in assets, has officially launched Solana and Micro Solana futures contracts on its trading platform. This move marks a significant step in mainstream adoption, as one of America's largest investment firms now enables its millions of clients to access Solana derivatives. The addition of both standard and micro contract sizes demonstrates institutional confidence in the world's second-largest smart contract blockchain and reflects growing demand for diversified crypto exposure among traditional investors.

Hmm... Schwab's move this time is somewhat impressive, but can SOL really withstand it?

According to on-chain data, Charles Schwab's recent move is indeed interesting... With an asset size of 1.08 trillion, suddenly pushing Solana futures? At first glance, the official narrative is "mainstream approval," but I want to know more if there are big players backing this behind the scenes.
By tracking counterparties, what does it usually mean when these traditional giants promote new tokens—either they genuinely believe in it or they are helping certain institutions to exit? The detail about micro contracts is worth noting; this is a typical tactic to attract retail investors and harvest their funds.
Obvious financial connections are present here, and Solana's recent surge just happens to perfectly align with this kind of positive news cycle, which is definitely not a coincidence.

Hmm... Is Charles Schwab really about to jump on board? When retail investors follow the trend, institutions have already made their arrangements long ago.
